[quote=Anonymous]If all the UMC kids stayed through MS AND successfully demanded advanced programming which was implemented by an administration and reaching staff motivated to provide that programming, and supported by DCPS in doing so, then yes, we would have more areas with quality paths through MS and HS. But there are a lot at variables there and I don’t blame families for not taking the risk. Part of the problem is that some UMC families do choose to send their kids to the local MS but accept the status quo and the families who stay but try to work for change get labeled as obnoxious or high strung or racist or whatever. You see this all over this board and I have experienced this even in ES. We were at a school with @good test scores@ which I took to mean lots of kids scoring 5s. What it means in hill-speak is that there is a small achievement gap. Big difference. [/quote]
